On This Page | Release DownloadsTo be notified of new releases, use Tunnelblick's built-in update mechanism or subscribe to the Tunnelblick Announce Mailing List. Beta versions are suitable for many users. See Stable vs. Beta for details. As a Free Software project, Tunnelblick puts its users first. There are no ads, no affiliate marketers, no tracking — we don't even keep logs of your IP address or other information. We just supply open technology for fast, easy, private, and secure control of VPNs.
Verifying DownloadsYou should verify all downloads. Even though https:, the .dmg format, and the application's macOS digital signature provide some protection, they can be circumvented. Verifying Hashes Comparing the SHA256, SHA1, and MD5 hashes of your downloaded file with the official published ones will provide additional assurance that the download is legitimate and has not been modified. You can compare the hashes with programs included with macOS without the need to install additional software. To compute the hashes of a file you've downloaded, type the following into /Applications/Utilities/Terminal: shasum -a 256path-to-the-file Then compare the computed hashes with the values shown near the link for the downloaded file. (Don't type 'path-to-the-file' — type the path to the file, that is, the sequence of folders that contain the file plus the file name (e.g. /Users/janedoe/Desktop/Tunnelblick_3.7.2a_build_4851.dmg). An easy way to get it into Terminal is to drag/drop the file anywhere in the Terminal window. The pointer will turn into a green and white plus sign ('+') to indicate the path will be dropped. So you would type 'shasum -a 256 ' — with a space after the '256' — and then drag/drop the disk image file anywhere in the Terminal window.) For additional assurance that the hashes displayed on this site have not been compromised, the hashes are also available in the description of each 'Release' on Tunnelblick's GitHub site, which is hosted and administered separately from this site. Verifying GnuPG Signatures Recent Tunnelblick disk images are also signed with GnuPG version 2. To prepare for verifying signatures, you should download and install GnuPG 2.2.3 or higher, and then add the Tunnelblick Security GnuPG public key (key ID 6BB9367E, fingerprint 76DF 975A 1C56 4277 4FB0 9868 FF5F D80E 6BB9 367E) to your trusted GnuPG keyring by typing the following into /Applications/Utilities/Terminal: gpg --import TunnelblickSecurityPublicKey.asc. To verify the signature of a file, download the corresponding signature file and then type the following into /Applications/Utilities/Terminal: gpg --verify path-to-the-signature-filepath-to-the-disk-image-file The result should be similar to the following: gpg: Signature made Sat Dec 16 19:17:03 2017 EST User ContributionsThese downloads have been contributed by users and usually help deal with special circumstances. They are not endorsed or checked by the Tunnelblick project, and you use them at your own risk. To contribute a download, send it to the developers or post it on the Tunnelblick Discussion Group.

Download IntegrityIn June 2015 there was much discussion (and outrage) about SourceForge providing downloads that contain unwanted or malicious software; SourceForge has changed their policies to help avoid this. Tunnelblick binaries were hosted on SourceForge from the fall of 2013, when Google Code stopped hosting new binaries, until 2015-07-17, when they were moved from SourceForge to GitHub. Tunnelblick protects against unwanted software insertions by publishing the SHA1 and MD5 hashes for each of our downloads. You should verify the hashes of all Tunnelblick downloads by following the instructions above. Additional safeguards automatically protect updates performed by Tunnelblick's built-in update mechanism:
Downloading and Installing on macOS Mojave and HigherWhen you install any application, including Tunnelblick, after it has been downloaded normally, macOS Mojave and higher send information to Apple (they 'phone home'). macOS Catalina and higher also 'phone home' each time you launch any application, including Tunnelblick. These behaviors are considered by some to be a violation of privacy. You can avoid these behaviors, but you will be disabling security checks which macOS would normally do on a downloaded program, including checks that the program is correctly notarized and has been found to not contain malware. To avoid having macOS Mojave and higher 'phone home' when you install Tunnelblick, you can do the following to download Tunnelblick to your Desktop:
This will download the file to your Desktop without the flag that indicates the file was downloaded from the Internet. When that flag is present, macOS Mojave and higher 'phone home' when the downloaded file is double-clicked to install it; when the flag is not present, macOS Mojave doesn't. To avoid having macOS Catalina and higher 'phone home' when you launch Tunnelblick (or other applications), see How to run apps in private. [1] Tunnelblick downloads are redirected from the tunnelblick.net website to GitHub, which may redirect them further. Typically one or more tiny downloads (a few hundred bytes each) provide information about the redirection, and the final larger download is the desired file. |

Highlighted Articles Discussion Group | On This Page Troubleshooting this problem could be very simple: try connecting the VPN with and without 'Set nameserver' selected. If one way or the other solves your problem, you're done! OpenVPN is such a powerful tool with so many options, and computer configurations are so varied, that it is impossible to have an exhaustive troubleshooting guide. This guide is meant for the most common setups, so if it doesn't apply to your situation, or doesn't help, see the Support page for guidance. This page assumes that you are successfully connected to a VPN server. If not, or if you aren't sure, look at Common Problems. If OpenVPN is connected to the server but you can't access the InternetAfter connecting, if you can't reach the Internet, it's likely that your setup has
Tunnelblick includes the ability to diagnose some DNS problems and will warn you about some common configuration problems. Check for a DNS problem: If you don't have a DNS problem then there is something else going on. See the Support page for guidance. If you have a DNS problem:
How to check your DNS settings
Note: If the DNS server list is dimmed (grayed out), it was set via DHCP, not manually. How to use a different DNS serverThere are two ways to set up a different DNS server: Use a different DNS server whether or not a VPN is activeYou can set your computer up to use a different DNS server all the time. Google Public DNS is free, and OpenDNS has a free version. There are lots of others. To use such a DNS server all the time (whether or not a VPN is connected):
This will set up your computer to always (whether or not you are connected to the VPN) use two Google DNS servers and two OpenDNS servers (in that order). Substitute the addresses for the DNS provider of your choice if you want. Use a different DNS server only when the VPN is activeNote: This will only work if you specify 'Set nameserver' in Tunnelblick's settings for the configuration. Add a line to your OpenVPN configuration file for each DNS server: ' If OpenVPN is connected to the server but your IP address does not changeIf you have a check in the 'Check if the apparent public IP address changed after connecting' checkbox on the 'Settings' tab of Tunnelblick's 'VPN Details' window, and your IP address doesn't change after connecting, a window will pop up to notify you. If OpenVPN connects to the server properly but your IP address does not change, your OpenVPN setup needs to include the '--redirect-gateway' option. By default, OpenVPN only sends some traffic through the VPN — traffic that is specifically destined for the VPN network itself. The '--redirect-gateway' option tells OpenVPN to send all IPv4 traffic through the VPN. There are three ways the option can be added; you need only use one:
(The '--' at the start of an OpenVPN option is omitted when the option appears in a configuration file.) How to test your IP addressYou can find out what IP address your computer is using by going to https://tunnelblick.net/ipinfo. The first number shown is your apparent public IP address: Note: tunnelblick.net does not use Javascript, other client-side scripting, plugins, trackers, beacons, or web bugs, and it does not carry advertising. It does not store cookies or any other data on your computer (except as noted in the tunnelblick.net privacy policy). If you have checked 'Check if the apparent public IP address changed after connecting', the IP address will be displayed in the Tunnelblick menu while you are connected: |
